Chicken Dijon

Submitted by Irmgard

"A simple, delicious, low fat recipe that can be served hot, at room temperature or cold. I love this made with chicken thighs but 4 breasts can be substituted if you prefer white meat."

 

• Ready In: 1hr
• Ingredients: 7
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1⁄4 cup plain yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 cup whole wheat bread crumbs
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
• 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
• 8 skinless chicken thighs, deboned if desired

directions

1. In a small bowl, combine the yogurt and mustard.
2. In a shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, thyme, salt and pepper.
3. Dip each piece of chicken in the mustard mixture, coating well, then roll in the bread crumb mixture.
4. Place the chicken in a single layer on a lightly greased baking sheet.
5. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 to 50 minutes for bone-in chicken, 30 minutes for boneless chicken, or until golden brown and the meat is no longer pink.

Tasty and easy. I think I'll add a little more mustard next time, though. I love that flavor.

This had lots of flavor. I used plain bread crumbs, but felt it was a nice and healthy way to prepare chicken. I enjoyed it with basmati rice and garlicky brussel sprouts. Thanks for sharing!

Excellent recipe. Very yummy with a nice hint of thyme. I made it with boneless, skinless breasts and it turned out great.
